Eleven Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 The matchups are official: Boston - Detroit Pittsburgh - Columbus Tampa - Montreal Philadelphia - NYR Colorado - Minnesota Anaheim - Dallas Chicago - St. Louis San Jose - Los Angeles Teams with home ice advantage are on the left. I think Detroit could upset Boston, and that Chicago vs. St. Louis series is going to be entertaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoss Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) You've got Philly and Chicago at home, but it should be NY and St. Louis.

Derrico Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 You've got Philly and Chicago at home, but it should be NY and St. Louis. Ok I was very confused for a second. I know the blues have not been great down the stretch but I thought they had home ice. Man that's going to be a great series. Not sure the blues even make it out of the first round and therefore we need miller signing before the draft to end up with that late first.

darksabre Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Boston was Detroit's b*tch this year. The Wings have the speed to push the tempo. They win by forcing Boston to make mistakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beerme1 Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Boston was Detroit's b*tch this year. The Wings have the speed to push the tempo. They win by forcing Boston to make mistakes. But how often do we see the dominant team in the regular season become the other teams ###### in the playoffs? If I we're betting on it my money would be on Boston. Now I'm going to puke.

That's what they get for blowing their wad to end the regular season on top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMatrix31 Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Anybody but Boston or Philadelphia, obviously. ....but don't we get a boost in that pick if St. Louis makes it to the WCF? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoss Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 My bracket (could change): First round: Minnesota St Louis Anaheim San Jose Boston Montreal Pittsburgh New York Second round: St. Louis over Minny Anaheim over San Jose Montreal over Boston New York over Pittsburgh Conference finals: Anaheim over St. Louis Montreal over New York Stanley Cup: Anaheim over Montreal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I set this up as a league for us to put in our own picks. I wouldn't mind a SabreSpace "consensus entry" in the public bracket challenge, but I'm not going to be the guy who tries to obtain that consensus here!

WildCard Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Well I had to sign in through my NHL account so I'm Kirch937 for those wondering. In the Conference Finals I've got West: Anaheim vs. Colorado East: Montreal vs. Pittsburgh Cup Finals: Anaheim vs. Montreal Winner: Anaheim in 6 games, 37 goals Stanley Cup: Anaheim over Montreal Nice, I thought I would be alone on having Montreal go that far. I think they're the only team in the East, them and maybe NYR, that could beat Boston. Goal-tending baby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoss Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Montreal seems to be a popular pick, for good reason. The East is tough. Without bias I would probably go with Boston, but I can't bring myself to it. Montreal has the talent. Pittsburgh could make a run, but they NEED Letang to play at a high level to do that. He cost them last year in the playoffs. MAF, too. I could see NY finally make a run just because Henrik, but I switched my pick from them to Montreal.
